How to extract this string?

There are two types of raw data. What is the regular expression to get the value between the /* special symbol and the */ special symbol in the raw data?

I tried this regex but it doesn't work

rex field=query "^[^/\n]*/\*(?P<test>[^\*]+)"

 

DATA1

SELECT /*4/18 test */ DRTA_SEQ\r\n FROM DATA_REQ_LIST\r\n WHERE DATE < TO_DATE('2023-04-18 06:00:00', 'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS')\r\n

 

DATA2

with my_index as (\n select index_name from ALL_indexes where table_owner = :1 \n /* test select index_name from CHAN_indexes where table_owner = :schema_name and table_name in ( :[*object_names] )\n *//* test select * from Chanlist */

 

I want this string to be extracted

DATA1

4/18 test

DATA2

test select index_name from CHAN_indexes where table_owner = :schema_name and table_name in ( :[*object_names] )\n

test select * from Chanlist

Assume that your data field is named data,

| rex field=data "^[^/]*(?<data_a>.+/)[^/]*$"
| eval data_a = split(data_a, " */")
| eval data_a = mvmap(data_a, replace(data_a, "/\* *", ""))
